Loving Everly Gray (✔️)

Chapter 19

While doing our homework together, he asked, "What are you doing this Friday night?" He asked.

"No plans, yet." I said.

"Would you like to come with me for a movie?" He asked.

"What movie is it?" I asked, curious.

"Spider-Man?" He asked, "Do you like Spider-Man?"

"Of course." I said, excited. "I have wanted to watch that, should I ask Abby too?"

"Sure." He replied awkwardly to me, while scratching his hair.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing, you can call Abby." He give me a small smile and I smiled back.

About half-way, someone pulled a chair beside me and I turned my head to look at the person.

"Hello." I see Elliot, he smiled at me as he greeted me

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I had game practices and now I am done." He said, "Are you done?"

"We are still working on it." Aiden said, looking at Elliot with a frustrated look.

Elliot give him a smile, it looked fake to me.

"Did I asked you?" He asked Aiden.

I rolled my eyes at his attitude, "We are still working on our homework."

"I can help you." He said, casually.

I shake my head. "We are almost done and stop talking so loudly before we get kicked out." I looked at the people around us who was looking at us.

Elliot stayed silent for the next one hour, until we were done. He played with his phone and seemed bored. Sometime I think he is a gifted child, he doesn't seem to have to work hard academically and is almost good at everything he put his time on.

We exited the library and Aiden turned to look at me. "Thank you for coming with me." He thanked shyly.

"I should be the one thanking you for helping me." I said to him.

"And I would like to thank myself for being nice." Elliot remarked and Aiden give him a look.

"What?" Elliot snapped at Aiden. "You want to start a fight with me now?" And moved towards Aiden.

"Hey." I said, reaching out to Elliot. "Can you not do that, please?"

"You should be glad she is here." Elliot glared at him.

"Of course." I remarked.

"Let's go. I am hungry." Elliot pulled me toward his car.

"See you, Aiden. Have a good night."

He waved back awkwardly as he watched us leave. Elliot threw our bags behind the seat of his Audi as we slipped inside.

He put on his shades and said, "We are actually going to grab something. I am so hungry. Where would you like to go?"

"I don't know?" I said.

"Let's grab pizza." He said, looking at me.

"Sure." I said and nodded my head. He drove us to the nearest Pizza Hut and he parked his car. We walked inside together and stood in the take out line and I can feel every eyes was on him. The line was small, but there were still people. The order taker looked flustered as he ordered a pizza box for us.

"You do get a lot of attention wherever you go." I said to him.

"Tell me something new." He said and as soon as he said that, a group of girls came to him and I tried to hide my smile because it will be pretty interesting.

"Hello." One of them greeted him, completely ignoring me and I was kind of glad , that they were keeping me out of the scene.

"What?" He snapped at them and they were slightly taken aback by his attitude and looked flustered.

"We just thought we should say hi to you."

"Why?" He asked, "You should say hello to my girlfriend here,too." And dragged me into the scene and I scowled at him.

They looked embarrassed and give me a small smile and walked away.

"You should stop pulling me into these matter, they were clearly interested in you and not many come forward to do these."

"It is not always sunshine and if I am not clear in the beginning, this will give them hope and I am someone who don't give false hope to anyone."

I tilted my head at him, confused by his words.
